This study is being conducted to demonstrate the superiority in progression-free survival (PFS) of dinaciclib compared to ofatumumab in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) participants with del 17p or in the overall population who are refractory to either fludarabine treatment or chemoimmunotherapy.

Dinaciclib administered intravenously over 2 hours at a dose of 7 mg/m^2 on Day 1, 10 mg/m^2 on Day 8, and 14 mg/m^2 on Day 15 in Cycle 1. Starting in Cycle 2 and thereafter, dinaciclib will be dosed at 14 mg/m^2 on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle for a total of 12 cycles.
